Ties That Bind

One young wizard fights for her life in this dark tale of magic and corporate espionage.

When Nell's father died, she took over the company he built from the ground up. A company that's facing a big time problem. Someone's deliberately sabotaging the spells the company uses to enhance its products. If Nell can't find the culprit, she'll lose everything her father gave his life to protect.

Everything, including her soul.
Award-winning writer Annie Reed gives new meaning to the term "hostile takeover" in a memorable tale of one young woman's struggle to protect her family's legacy, a story that readers are sure to enjoy.
